5th March - Huawei Technologies announced that it has launched the world's first mobile TV capable 3.5G datacard, called the E510, at CEBIT, the world's largest communications showcase event for consumer electronics, held in Hannover, Germany.

The E510 is a small and slim 2M HSUPA stick equipped with mobile TV functionality that can turn a computer into a television with direct access to a TV signal. The device integrates mobile TV and mobile broadband, can be used for PCs and laptops and is suitable for both professional and entertainment purposes.
